Party fish and chip van for your party in Murrell Green
The queue at the hatch gets people mixing, which is what a party is all about. Typical bookings include kids’ birthday parties and reunions and family get-togethers, with cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
In a small place like Murrell Green, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.
Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Access wide and high enough for the van
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Planning a party in Murrell Green
Murrell Green is about 4 miles west of Fleet, in Hampshire. Give us the address of your party in Murrell Green, and we’ll plan access and set-up before the day. Murrell Green is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Murrell Green to Reading (11 miles away).
Guests arriving by train should know that Winchfield station is about 1.3 miles away. After a christening at a church like St John the Evangelist, a chip van at home is an easy way to feed family and friends.
Parties anywhere in RG27 start with a parking spot for the van and a serving time. Neighbouring places where we serve parties include West Green (1 mile north-east), Hook (1 mile west), Phoenix Green (1 mile east), Winchfield (1 mile east) and Hook Common (2 miles south-west). Further out, we also take the van to Basingstoke (7 miles west), Farnborough (7 miles east), Fleet (4 miles east), Aldershot (8 miles east), Alton (10 miles south) and Yateley (6 miles north-east).
A little further out are Odiham Castle (2.2 miles south-west) and Fleet Community Hospital (3.8 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Fleet Pond Nature Reserve and Tundry Hill.
How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. A summer party in Murrell Green stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

Planning help
Working with your venue
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Send allergies to us in writing
When everyone has eaten, we pack up and leave the drive tidy.
Plan cover in case of showers.
Common questions in Murrell Green
What’s the nearest station to Murrell Green?
The closest is Winchfield station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
We’re gathering after a service at St John the Evangelist: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer weekends go first. Contact us with your date.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Hampshire included. Find your area.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
